+Project FB303: The Facebook Bassline
+------------------------------------
+
+* Curious about the 303? *
+http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_TB-303
+
+* Why the name? *
+The TB303 makes bass lines.
+.Bass is what lies underneath any strong tune.
+..fb303 is the shared root of all thrift services.
+...fb303 => FacebookBase303.
+
+* How do I use this? *
+Take a look at the examples to see how your backend project can
+and should inherit from this service.
+
+* What does it provide? *
+A standard interface to monitoring, dynamic options and configuration,
+uptime reports, activity, etc.
+
+* I want more. *
+Think carefully first about whether the functionality you are going to add
+belongs here or in your application. If it can be abstracted and is generally
+useful, then it probably belongs somewhere in the fb303 tree. Keep in mind,
+not every product has to use ALL the functionality of fb303, but every product
+CANNOT use functionality that is NOT in fb303.
+
+* Is this open source? *
+Yes. fb303 is distributed under the Thrift Software License. See the
+LICENSE file for more details.
+
+* Installation *
+fb303 is configured/built/installed similar to Thrift.  See the README
+in the Thrift root directory for more information.
